Hello again Lucas,
I understand your needs, you want to apply mutliple
tags, in which case, have a look at the link I provided. Right
down at the bottom is XSLT 1.0 code, which is probably what
you want.
I gave you my (*knowingly broken*) stylesheet to try
and illustrate that (as is my understanding) a template will
applied based on how exact a match is. Chaining the templates
is usually fraught with, well, rather ... 'ugly' code.
At least to my eye's (and this from a perl programmer ;)
regards
Stef

Hi,
Thanks Stef for this solution, but what I want is a little different:
In the example, it is clear that I want title and paragraph formatted
this way. But in fact I don't now before hand what the elements are that
need italic or bold. So I want to make templates (or something) that
surround some context with some elements. Then I want to call these
templates with a node that is then wrapped.
In a C like programming environment, this is what I want:
function bold(var content) {
return "<B>"+content+"</B>";
}
function italic(var content) {
return "<I>"+content+"</I>";
}
print bold(italic(some node));
I hope this is more clear.
greetings and thanks,
Lucas

Hello Lucas,
It sounds (to me at least) very much like you want to apply
mutliple tags via XSLT. There is a really great write-up of how someone
solved this on the following link;
http://www.dpawson.co.uk/xsl/sect2/multitags.html
Its a lot more in-depth than any solution I could give, and
infact, I merely (when I need to do this) exactly specify something
like;
<xsl:stylesheet
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
version="1.0">
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:apply-templates />
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="title|paragraph">
<i><xsl:apply-templates /></i>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="title">
<i><b><xsl:apply-templates /></b></i>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
use that and you should get a hint as to how apply-templates
works on matches ;>
regards
Stef
(ps. I am still learning this crazy thing called XSLT, so any mistakes,
feel free to scream and point :)

Hi,
I'm using XSL version 1.0 and am trying to use the decorator design
pattern, but can't get it to work in XSL.
Here is what I try to achieve:
Different types of elements all need to be surrounded by the same
text.
For example:
I've XML:
<base>
<section>
<title>the title</title>
<paragraph>some text</paragraph>
<paragraph>more text</paragraph>
</section>
<section>
<title>the title</title>
<paragraph>other text</paragraph>
<paragraph>more other text</paragraph>
<paragraph>and more text</paragraph>
</section>
</base>
Now I want all text in titles and in paragraphs to be italic and in
titles also to be bold.
My first thought was to use call-template like this:
<xsl:template match="title">
<xsl:call-template name="bold">
<xsl:call-template name="italic">
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:template>
But this is not the way to do this.
I cannot however figure out or find the solution. The decoration that
must be applied is much more complicated than bold or italic, but that
is besides the point, I think.
Here is my second try, but here is the problem that I cannot nest
decorators, so bold and italic is not possible on the same element:
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
version="1.0">
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:call-template name="body"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="section">
<xsl:apply-templates />
<br/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="title">
<xsl:call-template name="bold" />
<br/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="paragraph">
<xsl:call-template name="italic" />
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template name="bold">
<b>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</b>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template name="italic">
<i>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</i>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template name="body">
<html>
<body>
<xsl:apply-templates />
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Can anybody give me a pointer?
Thanks in advance
Lucas
